Android vs iOS Debate Ends in Violence

I can’t tell you how many times I have had friendly debates with people about the pros and cons of both, iOS and Android. Both parties are very passionate about the OS they prefer, but recently, two friends took the whole thing a few steps too far, which resulted in physical violence.

According to the Tulsa Police Department, two friends were drinking in the middle of the night, arguing about Android and iOS. The argument turned bloody when one friend bashed the other on the head with a beer bottle, leaving the victim with pretty bad cuts and bruises. When police arrived, the assailant, Elias Acevedo, was also covered in blood. Apparently, the two were going at it for quite a bit of time before police were able to separate them.

It was not stated which OS the individuals fought for, but at the end of the day, there are no winners here. Acevedo, 21, is being held without bond, while an Immigration and Customs Enforcement hold has also been placed on him.

We do hope no one here would ever take their love for Android that far.

looks like the iOS guy shouldn’t have downloaded the new iDeported app on the app store.

Not even worth reporting on. These guys are clearly morons that can’t handle their alcohol.

FknTwizted

I think morons can handle their alcohol!

ckeegan

Oh, I’ve certainly wanted to punch some really good friends who are iPhone fanboys.

Fred Johansen

It is not about phones. The entire Android vs. IOS debate has gone beyond the devices and now targets the people who use them. Now the “debate” is Android PEOPLE vs. IOS PEOPLE. The devices are meaningless, the hatred is directed at users. I’m actually surprised this does not happen more often.

Święty

Yes. “Be together, Not the same” can and does extend beyond Android. That’s why it’s a worthwhile message. Great post DL.. Cheers!

FknTwizted

sure the tag line shouldn’t have been “Beat each other, where not the same”?

JLV90

People hurt each other for dumb reasons I’ve seen a news story before where one roommate killed another because they disagreed on the best way to cook pork chops.

FknTwizted

Better question is who won!

Danny

I’m pretty sure they didn’t fight over the platforms. Most arguments of passion end up with jabs or quips about personal observations. When I have debate amongst my friends and they seem to be on the ropes they use personal insult as a comeback. Article states it correctly they are just phones. I have members try to pin one device over the other, I just tell them to have a great day.

Droid-Life posts articles like this, yet there hasn’t been a Custom ROM Friday since April 26, 2013.

Everyone knows that Windows Phone Rules! Let me at ’em! I’ll take them both on!
– I’m kidding, in case that wasn’t clear

jboogie1289

Windows…….of course!!!

Eden Aharon

Well… With Android there are Chinese phones that include a shocker… IOS had no chance in that battle either! 😀
Jk. (though the shocker thing is true… )

AdamFrancisGarbacz

I didn’t know BGR was having a meetup in Tulsa.

DumbStory

It was a couple drunk illegals. I’m surprised they know the difference.

dannydarko

For some its just a phone but, for others like myself its a lifestyle( you know that K?). Would I beat someones ass over it (different opinion) absolutely not…………..unless they tried to take my phone.

As the ex-roommate of an Apple obsessed iSheep, I can confirm it was the iOS user who got violent. My ex-roomie literally slapped me once over an Android vs iOS debate. It’s always the childish ones who know they’re wrong that are more inclined to resort to violence. Srynotsry. #iOSucks

yummy

Guh
No
Is too
Bam

Jonathan

If you’re stupid enough to get in an actual argument (much less a physical confrontation) over iOS vs Android, you deserve to have a beer bottle smashed over your head and/or be deported.

JonathonFlores

“They’re just phones, guys.” You’re lucky I don’t have a beer bottle to smash over your head for saying something so ludicrous.

Turb0wned

It’s all about Tizen and blackberry OS

ahsgsv

In the report it says an argument between the iPhone and a “newly released samsung phone” but samsung releases new phones every week :p

Me

Lol

Nikko Clavaguera

No… they’re just OSes

Me

Idk why we all know iOS is better 🙂

CHRIS42060

I am pretty passionate about my side in this discussion, but would never resort to violence.

Dave Amburn

Meh, not much of a story when alcohol is involved. Drunks fight over anything and everything.

flosserelli

Given their names and the ICE involvement, both men are probably Hispanic. And when Hispanics get together, it’s not a party until someone gets stabbed or shot. (I can say this because my girlfriend is Hispanic, and she agrees)

san q

Bet the immigrant had the android lol

Tony B

A tech argument is the excuse. This fight was mostly likely about something else and was inevitable…

Dave

I thought this debate was already settled. Everyone already knows that Windows Phone is the dominant platform. With a whopping 6 activations per day, it will never be overtaken by the likes of Android or iOS.

You win the internet for the day! Treat her nicely!

Ben Murphy

Who said anything about her? – GoT

anehlo

You know what would be epic? A Windows Phone vs. Blackberry fight! Now that would be vicious, they both have nothing to lose. Haha

There should be some kind of Darwin awards for stuff like this. So stupid.

The fact that he has to protect the back of his delicate neck from the mean squat bar pretty much makes me think the Android user won.

Bryan

I thought the exact same thing once I saw the blue back harness.

michael arazan

Old equipment gets rust streaks in them from all the sweat from people and the lack of upkeep from the staff, not defending the douche in the pic. Just because I use free waits and hate when the rust marks get all over my clothing

trumpet444

while I agree with you, the dude is wearing a $1.50 A-shirt

SomeGuy

use a towel

the one you should be using to wipe down equipment after you use it

Brandon

Yeah, who needs a pussy pad.

Lucky Armpit

The fact that his profile pic is him taking a selfie while weightlifting says all I need to know about him.

Picaso86

and his current mobile OS…..

Ben Murphy

Dayummm! Looking good though. =)

VAVA Mk2

What…..no Beats headphones? He needs to complete the look. He is just a wannabe tool and not the real deal.

BeHereNow8484

Actually they’re operating systems, just sayin’

Nerd on Nerd crime is becoming a real problem these days. #dorks

tom riddle

i think these two guys camp out on bgr.

Me

More than likely

Caveman

“two friends were drinking in the middle of the night”, that start of so many stories and arguements.

TC Infantino

LOL So true. And you never hear good stories that start “So these two guys were eating salad….”

CHRIS42060

or so many stories of nights that are legen-dary!

AngryBadger

Did the police yell windows phone to distract them?

Mr. Oz

And at the end of the day they open instagram and facebook almost exactly the same.

Brandon Nicholson

While I would love to say a majority of the people here wouldn’t do this… I truly believe a number of people here have wanted to do something like this to Tyler Durden. 😉

By every objective measure, ios is better. I’m an android user, though, because I hate myself.

trixnkix637

Cameras and update process are the only things really.

Mark

I’m guessing iphone man couldn’t take his lack of freedom and just started stabbing in jealousy…..

Jack Bauer

Why couldn’t they handle it like civilized individuals…..with keyboards…..in a Comment Sections….throwing around insults that are witty, yet immature….

It will be almost 2 weeks since I posted anything/anywhere on the
internet but for this topic I wanted to respond. I got tired of
everyone saying that they hate ABC or XYZ and I then realized that I was
falling into the same trap. If people have money to spend on a gadget
that I think is stupid let them. It’s not my money. They should do
what makes them happy and they should not worry what a faceless stranger
thinks.
I will just sit back and eat popcorn from now on instead
of wasting my time bickering over what’s the best. Sometimes discussion like that is poison for the
soul.

mahney

are u a diva? That was the most girly use of words i have ever seen

This comment is the reason you shouldn’t comment.

LMNOP is really stepping up their game though, we could see a shift in the markets soon.

VAVA Mk2

DUH! That guy must be an ABC fanboy. What a fu cking n00b!

Tyler

But what if i it lead to a greater quality of life. Provided iOS or Android wouldn’t really improve your life that much but if it were cars where one having better crash rating could ultimately save your life.

Emilio S.

I heard the weapon was the bezel from the HTC One and not a beer bottle. Hmmm…

I was born in Lawton, Oklahoma and moved to Saint Louis when I was 3, never seen that place a day in my life (that I remember) but I always think about going to visit and see what it’s like. But man a plane ticket to Oklahoma seems like such a waste of money.

Dave

Hold on…the debate has finally ended? Which OS won?

The Bilderbergers

Is that really even a question? We’ve had this answer for a while now.
